Watching perhaps the best John Wayne movie. Can you guess the one.

All good ones to be sure.

The Quiet Man is the one I'm talking about. ;)

Serious Bond?  What a silly notion.

Connery Bond is best Bond.
Connery Bond is rapiest Bond.
What I speak out of my mouth is the truth.  It burns like fire.

Not just Bond.

To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Which Bond is it in which Connery is getting a massage from a hottie when his supersecret contact comes, then he slaps her on the ass and says "boy talk?"

Bestest scene ever.

I would guess that would probably be Thunderball.

You Only Live Twice is my favorite Bond film; although Casino Royale (the modern one) is probably the best of the lot, it's just too straight.

I'd go with The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence as his best, though it's not necessarily my personal favorite.

Battle of Five Armies - pfeh. Same shit as the previous ones.

I wonder if it's possible to make a "no stupid shit" cut of the three movies that lasts 120 mins or so, with the story still making sense.

I've often thought about attempting something like this when the last film's extended edition is released.  There is so, so, so much shit to throw on the cutting room floor or re-edit to make it not awful amongst the three films.

I imagine there are three great movies hidden underneath all the bullshit.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017
